I love how much the community has embraced Atomic. Bazzite is making a huge splash.

I mean, he is definitely person of the year. It's not best person of the year, it's the person that had the most impact. His victory was more sweeping than anyone expected. He gained ground in every demographic. The political parties are likely to be forever changed after that election. I just hope the democrats don't learn the wrong lessons.

Again, why did you wait so long?

Decided to run despite polling telling him he would lose and then dropping out too late.

They're mad at you because you're correct.

I would agree with this assessment. Nearly all these extreme positions start off with some good intentions that spirals out of control and become radicalized.

He really is a grab bag full of good ideas and the worst ideas.

Why would that be more damaging? That was what congress wanted to do, before Musk.

We'll hopefully never find out who this guy is and never know what party they supported. Being anti private insurance is very much a progressive thing though...

Abortion was popular too before Roe got repealed. That doesn't matter to the Christo Fascists.

I was really hoping we would avoid violence by electing people like Bernie Sanders. Instead it looks like the class warfare will come to violence.

They were considering putting a time limit on the anesthesia they would pay for during procedures. Have a complication and the surgery runs long? Guess you're going to be in intense pain.

I mean, it is a tea that is sweet, but it's not sweet tea.

Unless you're in the southern US, you probably don't.

That probably isn't marketed to people that think beer is too bitter already.

Because those aren't sweet teas... At least not as sweet as actual sweet tea in the south.

That's going to be regional. In the US iced tea is unsweetened. Sweet tea is the one with tons of sugar, or if you're in the south they might just call it tea. In my travels in the US it's pretty understood that "iced tea" is unsweetened.

The Government Accountability Office. Literally an office that already does what DOGE is supposed to do.

There is already a push for this though. Not eliminating DST, but making it permanent. This is just DOGE trying to take credit for something that could potentially already happen. Like how the GAO already exists and DOGE is just citing reports the GAO already has done. Nothing says efficiency like putting two people in charge of a program that is duplicating what another agency already does.

Yeah, but complaining about bitter and then adding more bitter to improve it makes no sense. They didn't say they added sweet tea.
